Hello,

After (actually during) my last cygwin update, the installation
procedure crashes when setup tries to uninstall xorg-server.  I am
running on windows XP

I have updated to the latest setup.exe (2.573.2.3),  and rebooted.  I
do not see any x-processes in either task manager or windows services.
 What are my other options other than a complete re-install?  (I
looked to see if I could manually remove the package, but I did not
see any posts on that).  I also tried hiding bash.lst.gz, but that did
not help.

Thanks,

Mirko
